Koydo NCLEX Enterprise vs. ATI
ATI is the incumbent NCLEX prep platform embedded in nursing schools and health systems across the country. Koydo NCLEX Enterprise delivers comparable pass-rate outcomes with an AI nurse-educator tutor, multilingual support, and an institutional Pass Guarantee — at a price point that makes it accessible for programs at any budget level.
ATI: deeply embedded in nursing programs — strong for TEAS prep, clinical simulation, and faculty curriculum tools. ATI's Predictive Model is well-established and widely used for identifying at-risk students. For programs that need the full ATI ecosystem (TEAS, clinical sim, curriculum), ATI is a comprehensive but higher-cost option.
Koydo NCLEX Enterprise: AI nurse-educator tutor, institutional Pass Guarantee, NGN-format coverage, multilingual support (10+ languages), and competitive per-seat pricing. Ideal for programs focused on NCLEX pass-rate improvement — especially those serving international or ESL student populations.
Nursing schools using Koydo for NCLEX prep get an AI tutor and Pass Guarantee that ATI doesn't offer — at a per-seat rate competitive with ATI's institutional pricing.

What ATI Does Well
ATI has been the dominant NCLEX prep platform in nursing education for over two decades, and its depth of curriculum integration is unmatched. ATI TEAS — the pre-admission assessment used by hundreds of nursing programs — is an ATI-exclusive product that no competitor directly replicates. For nursing schools that use ATI as their program-wide assessment and curriculum framework from admission through graduation, the full ATI ecosystem is genuinely comprehensive.
ATI's Predictive Model has decades of validation data behind it. The model's ability to flag at-risk students before they sit for NCLEX is well-documented in nursing education research. Faculty who have used ATI for years often have institutional workflows built around it — remediation triggers, cohort benchmarks, and accreditation reporting that integrate ATI data. Switching from ATI is not a trivial decision for programs with these workflows deeply embedded.
ATI's clinical simulation tools and faculty curriculum resources are significant. For nursing programs that use ATI for more than NCLEX prep — including skills assessments, clinical readiness, and curriculum mapping — ATI provides value that extends beyond pass-rate preparation. For programs in that category, evaluating ATI as NCLEX prep alone understates its role.
Where ATI Falls Short
ATI does not include a conversational AI tutor. When a student gets a question wrong, they receive rationale text — but not an adaptive explanation that accounts for what they already know, what their pattern of errors reveals, or what they're most likely to see on their exam date. For students who need real-time, personalized guidance — especially at high-anxiety moments before the exam — the absence of an AI tutor is a meaningful gap.
ATI's institutional pass guarantee is not a standard included feature at standard pricing. Programs that want a guarantee need to negotiate it into their contract, and it's typically bundled with higher-cost institutional packages. Koydo includes an institutional Pass Guarantee at the standard enterprise rate — without negotiation.
ATI is primarily English-only. For nursing programs serving significant populations of international students, Filipino nurses, Spanish-speaking candidates, or other non-native English speakers, ATI's language support is limited. Koydo supports 10+ languages with multilingual AI tutoring — a clinically significant advantage for programs where language is a barrier to exam success.
